Polaroid DRA 01601A DVD recorder
Filed Under: Gadgets
Polaroid may have taken a few knocks since the introduction of digital cameras, but have come out swinging with the latest addition to their product range. The DRA 01601A DVD recorder has more features than a box full of remote controls.
Take a look at the specifications.

That is an impressive list of specs, and the Polaroid DRA 01601A DVD recorder is certainly a well built piece of equipment, but I have a feeling DVD recorders are about to get a whole lot better, and I would be tempted to wait a while before investing. If you have to have one this Christmas, this is certainly a good buy though.
